Interest Only Mortgage Deals

Saturday 22 October, 2022

Interest only mortgages may be able to help lower your monthly payments as you are not repaying the capital of the loan. In order to repay the mortgage, you can use a repayment plan which could include savings or other capital assets you may already own. 

With the Bank of England continuing to raise the interest rates, the knock-on effect to mortgages is now showing that taking an interest only mortgage can suit some people’s finances to improve their monthly budgets. 

It is always possible to review your mortgage to determine if there are other options available to you. We strongly recommend you call our mortgage broking team on 01707 872000 to help determine if you have the best mortgage rate and most suitable mortgage product for your circumstances.
